| Since GenConBowl is still the biggest tourney in North America and is less than a month away, could we get this topic "stickied"? |

"ou will allowed your choice of giving 2 players each a normal skill or one player a doubles roll skill or mutation after rounds 1, 3, and 5."
Is that correct ?  |

I'm sure it's correct. The only thing I was having fun with was that there are only 5 rounds... So, the skills you give your guys *after* round 5 will not be incredibly useful. |

Xtreme I sent you (and the wife) a PM hope to see you guys in Indy.
I haven't registered yet, but I'm thinking about playing again this year. Still trying to figure out all the events and such.
If not I'll stop by and heckle a bit...seriously though, Galak, here is a heartfelt thanks for running the GenCon tourney and supporting the game! |

 We actually found a guy who was willing to give 2 skills after the last game |

Congrats to Jay Deckman for winning the GenCon Bowl 2006 with 45 coaches attending.
Wolfgang came in 2nd place.
Rachel Green won Most Valuable Coach (YES! ... Women can win this game ... I hope her and Grace show up next year as they both are good competitors).
mrinprophet (Chris A.) won Best Sportsmanship
Matt Spanke won Least TDs allowed
Micheal Mullar won Best Painted (he won at the Chaos Cup 2005 as well with a different team ... really impressive paint jobs on both).
Alex Shutte won Most CAS (with Dwarves)
Sean McLane won Most TDs (with Dark Elves)
Wooden Spoon with to Jeff Pfaffman (Ogres)
=======
Side Note of personal pride. My brother Dennis Anders (he won last year's GenCon Bowl) has now played in all 4 GenCon Bowls ... 19 games. He has never lost a game yet (only coach who can say this ... Wolfgang is 2nd with only losing 1 in 19 games). This year he was 3rd in game points after Wolfgang and next in line after Rachel for Most Valuable Coach.
And the biggest laugh to me was he cannot wait for LRB 5.0 not because he cares about the rules (he doesn't pay ANY attention at all to be honest ... every year I have to sit down with him before the tournament and talk him through the newest changes since he only plays Blood Bowl once a year (at GenCon)) ... but he kept coming to me between rounds with complaints ... "why do Mummies have access to Block?" ... "Don't worry Dennis they won't next year" ... "Why can Deeproot and Count Luthor use team re-rolls?" ... "Don't worry Dennis they won't next year" ... "Why is the Master Chef so great? ... "Don't worry Dennis its not next year"
After all of this he asked ... "okay so what did LRB 5.0 do to my team" ... "Your Kroxigor will be a bit more expensive but you have enough Fan Factor to cover it and that's it" ... he says "Cool I'll look forward to next year."
So I got a laugh from that ... in fact ... I got an earful wondering why I didn't use it this year ... |

Thanks!

I had 5 great opponents and had an amazing time even with only getting 1 win. Thanks to Tom for running a great tournament. My favorite games were against Marcus' Ogres and Dave's Dwarves.
I hope to see some of the same faces at both the Chaos Cup in Chicago in October and the Underworld Cup in Ann Arbor in November. |

Thanks to Tom for putting in the effort to run a fantastic tournament.
My opponents were all great, and I had some of the best games I can remember. |

I'll echo previous posters by saying thanks to Tom for a great tournament. I had a great deal of fun and played some really great guys (Lawquoter, Xtreme, Wolfgang, Tom's brother Dennis and Patrick). This was the most fun I've had in years.
Thanks to Jay, Marcus, Joe, Bryan, Val, AJ and Patrick for a great time. |

Way to go Jay! PHILLY REPRESENTIN!
BTW - I am also undefeated at GenCon!
(that would likely change the first time I went, but until then...) |

Skavenboy I hope to post this week to the website.
The NAF results might take me a bit longer because I had a lot of folks I need to track down their NAF names or numbers for.
